The 'smeargate' story continues to bore me, and there seems to be little else in the typical Easter lull (especially as Brown's legislative programme this year is disgracefully small)
But I have got to thinking - if you were the dear leader, what would you do if your senior ministers were being called crooks and liars? Brown has yet to be caught out himself and I personally would want to ditch the liabilities - only he can't
He has offered feeble defences of Smith ('it's a personal matter') ignoring the wider issue which the other parties are keen to jump on - but I have since realised that he doesn't have a choice, Labour have no one left - Smith was already the bottom of the Labour-talent barrel
So Gordon, whether he wants to or not, has his hands tied
Of course, if I actually were Gordon I wouldn't have sought to oust the real leader to suit my own thirst for power, then do bugger all as I refuse the electorate a say for as long as legally possible
You do have a choice Gordon - it's called an election, and it's the right choice
